1) Jason: Shop A - 11 units; Shop B - 12 units. Sales increase at 17% per week. So, 11 + 12 = 23.
f(x) = 23(1.17)ˣ
2) Daniel: Element A temp - 44(1.13)ˣ ; Element B temp - 17(1.13)ˣ. How much temp of Element A be more than the temp of Element B.
f(x) = 44(1.13)ˣ - 17(1.13)ˣ = 27(1.13)ˣ
f(x) = 27(1.13)ˣ
3) Maggie: Tshirt price - $13. Charity donation - 270
f(x) = 13x - 270
4) Mr. Smith: Length of backyard - 30x + 29 ; Length of square patio - 13x + 6
Length not covered by the patio.
f(x) = (30x + 29) - (13x + 6) = 30x - 13x + 29 - 6 = 17x + 23
f(x) = 17x + 23
f(x) = 23(1.17)ˣ
2) Daniel: Element A temp - 44(1.13)ˣ ; Element B temp - 17(1.13)ˣ. How much temp of Element A be more than the temp of Element B.
f(x) = 44(1.13)ˣ - 17(1.13)ˣ = 27(1.13)ˣ
f(x) = 27(1.13)ˣ
3) Maggie: Tshirt price - $13. Charity donation - 270
f(x) = 13x - 270
4) Mr. Smith: Length of backyard - 30x + 29 ; Length of square patio - 13x + 6
Length not covered by the patio.
f(x) = (30x + 29) - (13x + 6) = 30x - 13x + 29 - 6 = 17x + 23
f(x) = 17x + 23
Answer:
First question: f(x) = 23(1.17)ˣ; Second question: f(x) = 27(1.13)ˣ; Third question: f(x) = 13x - 170; Fourth question: f(x) = 17x + 23
Explanation:
First question: Shop A sells 11 units and Shop B sells 12 units. Together, this is 11+12 = 23 units. The rate of sales is expected to increase by 17%; this means they will sell 100% of the current sales and an extra 17%:
100+17 = 117%; 117% = 117/100 = 1.17
This gives us the equation f(x) = 23(1.17)ˣ
Second question: We want to find the difference between element A, 44(1.13)ˣ, and element B, 17(1.13)ˣ:
44(1.13ˣ) - 17(1.13ˣ)
Factor out the common factor, 1.13ˣ:
1.13ˣ(44-17) = 1.13ˣ(27) = 27(1.13)ˣ
Third question: Selling x shirts for $13 each gives us the expression 13x. She plans to donate $270; this means she would subtract it from her profits, giving us the function
f(x) = 13x-270
Fourth question: We subtract the length of the patio, 13x+6, from the length of the backyard, 30x+29:
30x+29 - (13x+6) = 30x+29 - 13x - 6
Combine like terms:
30x-13x + 29-6
17x + 23
This gives us the function
f(x) = 17x + 23
